Purpose: To evaluate the effect of compression on the distracted area in new bone formation during mandibular distraction osteogenesis in rabbits. Materials and method: Sixteen rabbits, weighing approximately 2 Kg, and the prefabricated distraction device were used. With the rabbits under general anesthesia, we performed vertical osteotomies between the anterior and posterior mandibular teeth and then placed the distraction device. After a 5 -day latency period, the mandible was distracted to a length of 10.0 mm at a rate of 1 mm/day and then immediately compressed 4 mm in the experimental group (n=8). In the control group (n=8), the mandible was distracted to a length of 6.0 mm at a rate of 1 mm/day. Rabbits in the control group were killed at 2 and 8 weeks during the consolidation period. The specimens were evaluated with light microscope after H & E stain. Histomorphometric analysis was done at 8 week specimens. Results: All experimental animals showed mandibular elongation on the macroscopical and radiographic evaluations. At 2 week, immature bone formation was observed from the surface of the host bone margins with collagen fibers arranged parallel to the direction of distraction in the control group; in the experimental group, immature bone formation was observed adjacent to the host bone, and the collagen fibers were not arranged uniformly. At 8 week, spindle-shaped new bone formation was seen in the direction of distraction in distracted area of the control group, while in the experimental group, the newly formed bone was arranged in a multidirectional manner, like the pattern of trabeculae. In the histomorphometric analysis of 8 weeks, the area of bone deposition was $2.12{\pm}\;0.75\;inch^2$ in the experimental group and $0.87{\pm}0.51\;inch^2$ in the control group (p<0.01). The bone deposition ratio was $29.60{\pm}10.50%$ in the experimental group and $12.10{\pm}7.17%$ in the control group (p<0.01). Conclusion: These results suggest that compression after over-distraction during the mandibular distraction osteogenesis is an effective method of increasing the amount of newly formed bone in distracted area.

자동노출제어를 이용한 X선 흉부촬영에서 AEC 위치를 알 수 있도록 고안 된 AEC 표지자 사용에 따른 환자 피폭선량 감소 효과에 대하여 알아보고자 하였다. 흉부전용 디지털 X선 장비(DRS, LISTEM, Korea)를 이용하여 흉부촬영 검사를 하여야 하는 성인 남녀 880명을 대상으로 하였다. 대상환자 모두에서 자동노출제어(이온 전리조 양측 상단 2개 사용) 사용하여 촬영하였다. 조사야 크기는 $17{\times}17inch$, 관전압은 120kVp, 촬영거리는 180cm로 설정 하였다. 대조군 440명은 Detector 내에 양측 폐가 위치하도록 하여 촬영하였고, 실험군 440명은 이온 전리조 위치를 방사선사가 알 수 있도록 표지자를 만든 후 이온 전리조 위치에 양측 폐를 위치 할 수 있도록하여 촬영하였다. 모든 환자의 나이, 몸무게, 키와 DAP 값을 측정 하였으며, PCXMC2.0을 이용하여 환자의 유효선량 값을 계산 하였다. 대조군 440명(M:F=245:195)의 평균 나이는 53.9세였으며, 평균 BMI는 23.4였다. BMI 분포는 저체중 35명, 정상 279명, 과체중 106명, 비만 20명이었고, 평균 DAP는 $223.56mGycm^2$, 평균유효선량은 0.045mSv 였다. 실험군 440명(M:F=197:243)의 평균 나이는 53.7세 였고, 평균BMI는 22.7이었다. BMI 분포는 저체중 34명, 정상 316명, 과체중 85명, 비만 5명이었고, 평균 DAP는 $207.36mGycm^2$, 평균유효선량은 0.041mSv 였다. 평균유효선량은 실험군이 대조군에 비해 0.004mSv(9.7%) 감소하였다. 실험군 유효선량 표준편차의 2배인 0.056mSv 이상의 과다피폭을 받은 환자는 실험군에 비하여 대조군에서 많았다 (65명(14.7%) 대 19명(4.3%), p=0.006, t-test). 자동노출제어를 이용한 X선 흉부촬영에서 환자에 맞는 정확한 선량을 위해서는 이온 전리조 위치와 검사부위를 일치 시켜야 하며 따라서 이온 전리조 위치를 알 수 있도록 고안한 표시 방법은 환자가 받을 수 있는 불필요한 방사선 피폭을 줄일 수 있는 방법이다.

The purpose of this study is to consider usefulness of using AEC mode and importance of patient center location in L-spine lateral radiography by comparing dose and image quality according to the change of patient center location with using AEC mode or not. In this study, guide wire is attached to the human body phantom's lumbar spine and the lead ruler is attached to the bottom of the wall detector to find out center location in detector. ESD, mAs, and EI were selected as dose factors, and image quality was compared through SNR. With the lumbar spine located center of the detector, dose factors and image quality were compared according to using AEC mode or not. Afterwards, phantom moved 4 cm and 8 cm back and forth and compared dose factors and image quality. The exposure parameters were 85 kVp, 320 mA, x-ray field size 10×17 inch, and the distance between the center X-ray and the detector was fixed at 100 cm. The center X-ray was perpendicular to the fourth lumbar spine and the only bottom AEC chamber was used. All data were analyzed by independent t-test and ANOVA. As a result of this study, with AEC when the center is matched, ESD was 1.31±0.01 mGy, without AEC was 2.12±0.01 mGy. SNR was shown to be 22.81±1.83, and 23.44±1.87 respectively. When the phantom's center moves 4 cm, 8 cm forward, and 4 cm, 8 cm backward, ESD were 1.09±0.004 mGy, 0.32±0.003 mGy, 1.19±0.017 mGy, 1.11±0.006 mGy respectively, SNR were 18.29±0.60 dB, 11.11±0.22 dB, 18.98±0.80 dB, 17.71±0.82 dB. Using AEC in L-spine lateral radiography reduced ESD by 38%, EI by 35%, and mAs by 38%, without any difference in SNR(p<0.05). When the phantom's center moves 4 cm, 8 cm forward, and 4 cm, 8 cm backward, ESD was decreasing each 16%, 75%, 9%, 15%, EI was decreasing each 14%, 77%, 15%, 20%, mAs was decreasing each 15% 75% 9%, 15%. SNR was decreasing each 19%, 51%, 17%, 22%.

최근 들어 세계적인 고유가 행진과 화석연료 고갈에 대응하기 위하여 대체 에너지원 발굴에 대한 필요성이 높아지고 있다. 그 중 CIGS 박막 태양전지는 미래 신재생 에너지 자원의 가장 유망한 후보군 중 하나이다. 기존의 Si 기반의 태양전지의 경우 시간경과에 따른 효율 저하, 높은 재료비, 복잡한 공정으로 인하여 대량생산이 힘든 단점을 가지고 있다. 반면 박막 태양전지의 경우 생산 원가를 낮출 수 있는 태양전지 제조기술로서는 2세대 태양전지로 불리우며, 에너지 변환 효율과 생산 원가에서 우월성을 가진다. 그리고 이러한 CIGS 박막 태양전지를 단일 CIGS 타겟을 이용하여 스퍼터링 공정으로 제작하면 기존에 사용되었던 동시 증발법에 비해서 간단하고 대면적 코팅 및 대량 생산이 가능하다. 본 연구에서 사용된 기판으로는 $25{\times}25mm$ 크기의 Soda Lime Glass (SLG) 위에 DC 마그네트론 스퍼터링 공정으로 Mo가 $1{\mu}m$ 증착된 시편을 이용하여, 2 inch 단일 CIGS 타겟 (MATERION, CIGS Target 25-17.5-7.5-50 at%)을 기판 가열하여 증착하였다. RF 파워는 80 W, 기판 온도는 RT, 100, 200, 300, $400^{\circ}C$로 가열 후 증착하였고, CIGS 박막의 두께는 약 $1{\mu}m$로 일정하게 하였다. CIGS/Mo 박막의 파워별 미세구조 분석을 위해 X-ray Diffraction (XRD, BRUKER GADDS)로 측정하였으며, 박막의 결정립 크기를 확인하기 위해 Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM, HITACHI)을 사용하여 측정하였다. 조건별 박막의 조성 분석 및 표면조도는 Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS, HORIBA 7395-H)와 Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM)을 이용하여 각각 평가하였다. 마지막으로 광학적 특성을 평가하고 박막의 밴드갭 에너지를 계산하기 위해서 190 nm에서 1,100 nm의 영역 대에서 자외선 광학 측정기(UV-Vis, HP-8453, AGLIENT)로 투과도를 측정하여 밴드갭 에너지를 계산하였다. 증착된 CIGS 박막은 기판 온도가 증가함에 따라 결정립 크기가 커지는 경향을 보였다. 이는 기판 상에 도달한 스퍼터 원자의 확산 에너지 증가로 인한 것으로 생각되어진다. 또한, 기판온도에 따른 결정립 성장 변화는 4성분계의 박막의 조성 및 핵생성 밀도와 관련되어 설명되어질 것이다.

The selective catalytic reduction (SCR) reaction of promoter catalysts was investigated in this study. A pure anatase type of TiO$_2$ was used as support. Activation measurement of prepared catalysts was practiced on a fixed reactor packing by the glass bead after filling up catalysts in 1/4 inch stainless tube. The reaction temperature was measured by K-type thermocouple and catalyst was heated by electric furnace. The standard compositions of the simulated flue gas mixture in this study were as follows: NO 1,780ppm, NH$_3$1,780ppm, $O_2$1% and $N_2$ as balance gas. In this study, gas analyzer was used to measure the outgassing gas. Catalyst bed was handled for 1hr at 45$0^{\circ}C$, and the reactivity of the various catalyst was determined in a wide temperature range. Conversion of NH$_3$/NO ratio and of $O_2$ concentration was practiced at 1,1.5 and 2, respectively. The respective space velocity were as follows . 10,000, 15,000 and 17,000 hr-1. It was found that the maximum conversion temperature range was in a 5$0^{\circ}C$. It was also found toi be very sensitive at space velocity, $O_2$ concentration, and NH$_3$/NO ratio. We also noticed that the maximum conversion temperature of (W, Mo, Sn) -V$_2$O$_{5}$/TiO$_2$ catalysts was broad. Specially WO$_3$-V$_2$O$_{5}$TiO$_2$2 catalyst appeared nearly 100% conversion at not only above 30$0^{\circ}C$ ut also below 25$0^{\circ}C$. At over 30$0^{\circ}C$, NH$_3$ oxidation decreased with decrease of surface excess oxygen. In addition, WO$_3$-V$_2$O$_{5}$TiO$_2$ catalyst did not appear to affect space velocity, $O_2$ concentration, and NH$_3$/NO ratio.ratio.

Objective and Background: Due to increase in Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) relating to computer use, a number of ergonomics recommendations have been proposed in order to tackle this problem. However, some of these recommendations have been conflicting. Method: This study was to survey the VDT (Visual Display Terminal) use of office workers. The subjects were 452 workers at 13 places of business and the data were collected by self-administered questionnaire. Results: As a result, prevalence of self-reported MSDs of all VDT workers was 90.2% and shoulder took up 57.0% and neck 38.3% by symptom part of body. The population of computer use of more than 6h/day was 84.5%, and 33.8% also reported using the VDT 2~3h/day without the rest time. Desktop computer users were 95.6%, and a 17-inch monitor accounted for 42.0% among the desktop users. As a result of satisfaction survey on overall computer work, 21.1% of the total respondents said satisfied, desk complaint was about 24.6%, and chair complaint was 33.4%. Despite the importance of computer environment, satisfaction was from fair to uncomfortable. Conclusion and Application: In conclusion, office workers are prone to the MSDs due to their work environment. Additionally, this study found that task was a significant effect for the majority of dependent variables, and therefore, the improvement of computer workstations work environment is urgent, and the improvement of desk height adjustment, chair seat size (length, width), backrest condition, location of keyboard (mouse) and arm rest is required.

Tablet product design problem was structured as constrained optimization problem and subsequently solved by multiple regression analysis and Lagrangian method of optimization. We used Lagrangian method for the purpose of finding the reason of the previous results. Biodiastase and cellulase were the enzymes, chosen, $Avicel{\circledR}$ and corn starch or calcium carboxy methyl cellulose were the binder and disintegrant, respectively. The effect of the dry binder and disintegrant concentration on tablet hardness, friability, volume, disintegration time was recorded. Optimization of this parameter was studied by using the constrained optimization method. In addition to finding a optimal condition of the enzyme tablets, the application of sensitivity analysis studies to such problems was also illustrated. In order to get a stable preparations of the enzyme tablets, accelerated test of coating tablets was carried out in this study. the results are as follows. 1) The minimum disintegration time, such that the average tablet volume did not exceed 0.0154 cubic inch and the average friability value did not exceed 0.62%, was 6.6 minutes and then $Avicel{\circledR}$ and corn starch were 15.4% and 17.2%, respectively. 2) The multiple-correlation coefficients for the regression models of tablet hardness, friability, disintegration time and volume were with in the 95% confidence range. 3) According to the test results, calcium carboxymethyl cellulose can be used as a disintegrant instead of corn starch.
